Nico Hulkenberg is close to agreeing a deal to remain with Williams for his
second season in Formula One, manager Willi Weber said on Saturday.

Earlier at Spa-Francorchamps, 23-year-old German Hulkenberg said talks
about staying with the famous British team are not yet taking place.

"I have a contract with the team, but there are options that need to be
redeemed," he said.

Manager Weber has now told the Cologne publication Express: "Nico is doing
so well that Frank Williams wants to extend his contract.

"Maybe (it will happen) even here in Spa, but I will not pre-empt Sir
Frank," he added.
